National Association of Re-enactment Societies


The National Association of Re-enactment Societies was formed in 1991 and is a UK organisation that brings together UK historical re-enactment groups.

Objectives

Its aim is to take the lead in safety standards and professionalism within historical re-enactment.

Activities
